Chapter 242: Alpha Werewolf Vs. Vampire Count.
Chapter 242: Alpha Werewolf Vs. Vampire Count.
Pepper was speechless as she looked at her sister with a shocked face as her brain processed what her sister said.
Her face started to get a little red, "HMMMM" her cheeks puffed out like a squirrel's, and she screamed:
"I'm not a child!" Suddenly a large object hit Roberta's shield, and the object easily passed through Roberta's barrier, passing within inches of Pepper's side.
BOOOOOOM!!
The object hit the ground and created a crater.
"Eh...?"
Pepper swallowed hard and looked at the object that passed her.
And she saw that it was the same man who was fighting Victor.
"What-..." Pepper was about to say something but fell silent when she heard Siena's scream.
"VICTOR! Don't throw weird stuff in our direction! What if it hit Pepper!?" Veins were bulging in Siena's head.
Nod, Nod.
Lacus nodded in agreement with her older sister's words.
"Watch it." She spoke in a neutral tone while looking at Victor.
But...
The man's gaze didn't even reach them. He didn't even seem to be listening to them, which was impossible due to vampire hearing, which means...
"He is very focused on the fight." Ruby explained, "When he's in this state...-" Before Ruby could finish, murderous pressure came out of Scathach's body, and a demonic voice was heard by everyone:
"Victor."
"..." Victor looked blankly at Scathach.
"Pay attention to your surroundings. What if you hurt Pepper?" Her eyes gleamed dangerously, and her hair was floating as if defying gravity.
"..." Natashia and Sasha were speechless when they heard what Scathach said. They wanted to say to her: 'Woman, you literally torture your daughters with the excuse of training, they wouldn't get hurt with just that!'
The mother and daughter knew that despite being called 'torture', it wasn't exactly 'torture'. Scathach's training was just too spartan for the current century.
In a way, it can be called 'old fashioned'.
"..." Victor stopped looking at Scathach and looked at Pepper.
His eyes sparkled for a few seconds, and he appeared in front of Pepper.
Victor extended his hand towards Pepper.
"Hii...." Pepper got a little scared with Victor's current appearance, he was very 'serious', and the aura that was emanating from his body was terrifying!
She closed her eyes a little when she saw Victor's hand reaching for her.
Pat, Pat.
Sounds of hair being stroked were heard alongside the feeling of a gentle pressure on the top of her head.
"...?" Pepper slowly opened her eyes and saw Victor's gentle little smile:
"I'm sorry about that, Pepper."
badump, Badump.
Pepper's heart started to beat faster.
She opened her mouth in shock. She didn't expect to see that expression on Victor's face, and her face turned a little red.
She swallowed hard and spoke with difficulty:
"It's okay-..." Before she could say anything again, Victor's eyes narrowed, and his smile grew, then he looked straight ahead.
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAR!
A wolf's roar boomed and echoed in the surroundings, and soon a man with white fur all over his body was seen.
The man looked at Victor, and the smile of a predator appeared on his face.
Victor suddenly grabbed Pepper's arm.
"Eh...?"
He spun a little and threw the girl towards Scathach.
"EHHHHHHH?"
And she wasn't the only one.
He approached Lacus and Siena and did the same:
"What-." Siena didn't have time to react.
"Don't touch-." Lacus didn't even have time to say anything.
Soon the bodies of the three ladies were flying towards Scathach.
Victor looked at Roberta, "Don't be lazy."
"!!!" Roberta's whole body trembled, and a smile appeared on her face:
"Yes, Master." Her eyes glowed violet for a few seconds, and she looked at the group.
Scathach narrowed her eyes and created a wall of ice to 'gently' catch her daughters.
"""Ugh.""" The three sisters hit the ice wall, and their whole bodies ached.
"...Mother, why didn't you-..." Lacus wanted to ask why her mother didn't catch them, but she didn't have time for that when Roberta suddenly appeared in front of the girls and created an even bigger shield.
This time, the shield was violet in color.
And before everyone could react.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
An explosion of unbridled power burst, generating waves of destruction from its epicenter!
Victor and Anderson clashed again, and, this time, the fight was taken to the air.
BOOOOM, BOOOM, BOOOOM, BOOOM!
Several bursts of air were heard by everyone, followed by:
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~"
The Laughter of two maniacs.
"Ugh, they're overreacting, and we're getting caught in the crossfire. If this keeps up, we're going to get hurt." Eleanor spoke with an annoyed face.
Although she didn't mind it one bit, after all, she had her regeneration, but even so, she didn't like to feel pain if she didn't have to.
"You're wrong." Sasha, Violet, and Ruby all spoke at the same time.
"Huh...?"
"When we're around, Victor always pays attention to us..."
"But what about Pepper…?"
"Anderson's body didn't hit my sister, right?" Ruby continued.
"..." Eleanor was silent.
Ruby looked up to the sky, "Darling will never put us in danger, no matter the circumstance." She spoke in a neutral voice.
"..." Sasha and Violet narrowed their eyes when they saw Ruby's current face and felt her emotions through their connection.
"Ruby-." Sasha was going to say something, but Natashia interrupted.
"Scathach, get us in the air, staying on the ground is giving me neck pain."
"..." Scathach looked at Natashia.
Seeing the woman's eyes, Scathach seemed to understand Natashia's intentions and nodded:
"Okay."
Scathach lightly tapped her toes on the ground.
Quake, quake.
A small earthquake started to be felt by all the girls.
"...Something is coming from below." Siena, who was getting up, spoke, and the moment she said this:
FUSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
A gigantic pillar of ice was created.
And soon, Victor's group was in 'heaven'.
"Ugh, she could at least warn us." Violet grumbled.
"Don't ask for the impossible, this is Scathach we're talking about." Sasha grumbled along with Violet.
"You're right..." Violet spoke with a smug face.
A portal appeared near the group, and soon Natalia appeared with a smile on her face.
"..." The two women looked at Natalia.
"Did you know this would happen?"
"I didn't know, but when things involve Countess Scathach, irrational things tend to happen, so I ran away."
"Ohhhh." Sasha and Violet felt that what the maid said made a lot of sense.
... They were clearly treating Scathach like an irregular, crazy, psychopath...
Wait, she is, isn't she?
"Pffft..." Natashia held back her laughter when she saw Scathach's gaze.
"Humpf," Scathach snorted and turned away, a mild pout visible on her countenance.
"...Wha-..." Natashia couldn't believe what she saw. Did she just huff? What the fuck?
"..." Ruby looked down, and she made a gesture with her hand.
And just as it happened just now, a great pillar of ice rose into the air.
"...I will not thank you, daughter of Scathach."
"I wasn't expecting it anyway." Ruby spoke in a cold tone.
"I see." Liza replied and turned back to the fight.
Ruby did the same as Liza and went back to looking at the fight.
And as if they were all in sync, the girls started looking at the fight too.
Although they are fighting at a much higher speed than normal.
Everyone could still follow what was happening.
Unlike the other times they'd fought, the two were hurting each other now.
Wrong, it would be more accurate to say that they weren't avoiding each other's blows anymore.
Victor was cut by Anderson's claws. Anderson had his chest pierced by Victor's hand.
Sometimes Anderson was punched by the ice gloves, and sometimes, he had his arm cut off by Victor's greatsword.
"That fool... He's switching weapons during the fight." Scathach flashed a small smile.
"Yes. That fighting style is pretty rare." Natashia spoke.
"Indeed." Scathach spoke.
'So that's why he wanted to become a 'master' at everything, huh?' Scathach could now understand one of Victor's goals.
If you're going to say it simply, he became a 'God of War'.
Why god of war? Because only the god of war had dominion over all weapons.
Even Scathach did not have 'complete mastery' in all weapons.
After all, she still preferred using the spear compared to other weapons.
'What he's looking for is something far beyond what I looked for.' To Scathach, this was an absurd thought, but...
She liked it, that's how it should be! If you are a man, you must fight for your goals, however stupid and irrational they may be!
A big smile started to appear on her face.
'Ahhh~, it's been a while since I felt this excited... I'm getting excited!' Scathach's eyes began to glow blood red, and she began to feel a strong urge to train again.
'Wait... Don't tell me?'
Scathach looked around, precisely speaking, she looked at the girls.
Seeing Violet and Sasha's clenched fists.
Seeing Lacus' and Pepper's puzzled looks.
Siena's annoyed look.
Eleanor's determined gaze.
She finally understood Victor's purpose.
"I see..." She flashed a gentle little smile: 'No matter how much time passes, he's still a gentle fool for the ones he loves, huh?'
Victor and Anderson separated and assumed a distance from each other.
Both were completely bruised and with blood oozing from their bodies.
But despite their bloodied appearance, the two men's smiles never left their faces.
"Let's level up, My Friend."
"Oh? I like that idea."
Suddenly.
The auras of the two men died completely, and a silence descended on the battlefield.
'The end is approaching...' Scathach could deduce that their combat would end at any moment.
Crack.
The sound of bones breaking shattered the silence in the courtyard.
Everyone looked at Anderson.
"Grrrr...." The man's eyes began to glow azure blue, hair began to grow from his body, the man's expression became even more animalistic and slowly began to change.
The man began to grow, as even more powerful muscles began to be created, a wolf's tail appeared behind him.
ROAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
He roared to the sky.
The atmosphere started to get heavy as if gravity was multiplying in the immediate vicinity.
FUSHHHHHHHHHHH
A pillar of Light ascended to the heavens.
"... This feeling." Liza broke into a cold sweat as she felt the power of an 'Alpha.'
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH~" Victor laughed with genuine happiness, he clenched his fist, and the magic circle of his gloves began to glow brightly:
"This is how it has to be, otherwise it wouldn't be fun!"
His eyes began to glow more intensely, and a suffocating heat began to leave his body as his hair began to defy gravity.
"Will he change into the shape of your family?" Sasha asked Violet as she felt the atmosphere around her warmer.
"..." Violet didn't answer and just kept watching intently.
Sasha looked like she was going to say something but fell silent when she felt something familiar coming from Victor's body.
She quickly looked at him and saw that clouds of lightning began to form near him, and lightning began to dance around him as if nature itself was celebrating the rise of a new power.
"Don't tell me..."
Rumble, Rumble.
"Oh?" A small smile appeared on Natashia's face, "Does he have the form of my family too?"
Natashia's question was answered by a large yellow pillar of lightning that rose from Victor's body.
"Pfft.... HAHAHAHAHAHA~, He really does!" Natashia laughed like a madwoman, while she looked very happy.
SLASH!
Anderson used his claws and tore apart the pillar of light surrounding him, and soon everyone could see his werewolf form.
He was a werewolf over 2 meters tall, muscular, he had a huge tattoo on his right arm, and everyone could see little 'golden lights' coming out of the creature's fur.
'As expected... He inherited the blood of that woman...' Scathach seemed to have understood something when she looked at those 'lights'.
"Sister..." Pepper went behind Siena. She was feeling strange... her body was shaking when she saw that creature.
"...Pepper?" Siena looked back, and when she saw her sister's state, she was silent and let her do what she wanted.
Violet felt someone holding her hand, and to see it was Ophis...
"... Are you okay?" She wasn't good at dealing with kids.
Nod
Ophis gave a simple nod.
"I see." Violet spoke and squeezed the little girl's hand a bit as suddenly a thought crossed Violet's mind, and she quickly stopped holding Ophis's hand.
"...?"
"I mean, you feel weird, right?" She was talking about Ophis' 'curse'.
"... Violet is good... Father, good memories..." She spoke a few words.
"...I see..." Violet flashed a small, gentle smile and took the little girl's hand.
"...What is this strange feeling...?" Sasha asked the question all newer vampires wanted to know the answer to.
"When we say werewolves are the opposite of vampires." Scathach began to speak.
"That's literally it." She pointed at Anderson.
She looked at the group, "They are a species contrary to us."
Natashia added, "It's like angels and demons, we are opposites of each other."
"And consequently, we have a 'little' instinctive fear when we meet werewolf 'royalty'." Scathach finished.
"..." The girls were silent while they were processing what they had just understood.
Scathach and Natashia smiled.
"Of course... It also means the same to the other party."
"...?" The girls didn't understand what the two women were implying.
But when they felt the atmosphere get heavier than it already was, they immediately looked at Victor.
"He doesn't have the perfect transformation yet." Natashia spoke curiously.
"...For now... Just give him time." Scathach spoke.
"Indeed."
Much like Sasha's transformation, Victor had his entire body covered in lightning. In this form, he didn't have long bat wings, but instead, his limbs had a high concentration of power. Precisely speaking, his legs were brimming with lightning power.
Victor took a deep breath and let it out of his chest as he opened his blood-red eyes and looked at Anderson.
Vampire and Werewolf look at each other.
A silence fell on the place until Victor's body seemed to distort in the air, and he displayed a big smile:
"I wonder if you've ever been kicked at the speed of sound."
RUMBLE!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!
